The
Concept of Universal Design
Accessible design solves access problems and is a subset of Universal Design. Universal Design integrates accessible (and other good) design into the social fabric creating conditions where PWDs do not need to be treated as outside the norm; "special." As important as the practicalities of the event planning are, we are keen to take advantage of the lead-up as an opportunity for community education, networking, and goodwill-building around Universal Design. Some very powerful networks and collaborations are going to be built in this process.
